I drove it to California once. Wonderful.

Ralph Nader is the ultimate liberal. Everything is dangerous, everything is bad for you, everyone is wasteful and needs to change their life, and the sky is falling. By the way, he's never been married, doesn't own a car, lives in a small apartment in D.C., and was living on $20,000 a year about 10-12 years ago. During a Congressional hearing, he sincerely stated he thought everyone could live on $20,000 a year since he did, married people could live on maybe $30,000. This is really how liberals think. Lots of mass transit, a lot fewer cars, small homes and/or apartments, and less "excess." This way we can give more of our money for government programs. Nader would have loved the Soviet Union. 8) Title: Re: Ralph Nader Calling for End to Athletic Scholarships Post by: 2Stater on March 26, 2011, 08:48:33 PM He's the guy on the "John Boy and Billy" show right? Nader man?
